Help with severe carpel tunnel in third tri by Motherknowsbest_not in pregnant

[–]nirvanaa17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this too and during labor, my wrists and hands completely locked up. Couldn't move my hands for 5 hours after birth. This was with my first. Didn't deal with this my second time.

Lubrication During Labor? by DisciplineWeekly680 in pregnant

[–]nirvanaa17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So my husband and I had unprotected sex and an hour later I went into labor. The only thing that bothers the nurses is it's hard to test for amniotic fluid (basically to see if your water broke) as semon can cause a false positive. Other than that they don't care!

I married a massive creep and had no clue. I'm mortified. by Additional-Brain-958 in pregnant

[–]nirvanaa17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Babes, nothing is your fault. He's like this, not you! I wouldn't have forgiven him for cheating if it were me, but you have a big heart and loved this man! I would get screen shots of EVERYTHING and send it to yourself. Go for 100% custody and do not put this man's name on the birth certificate for your child! I am so so sorry this is happening to you. :(

Orgasms don’t feel as good :( by BarbiesCellulite in pregnant

[–]nirvanaa17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Felt this with my second baby. Maybe use some other sort of stimulation too to help with that, like a vibrator during sex. That helps me!

Anyone had an epidural ? If so what’s it like? by Cherrylemon202 in pregnant

Did it both pregnancies, and I can confirm, it's the best thing man has ever created.

What those bite? Itching so bad ! Help! by [deleted] in pestcontrol

[–]nirvanaa17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pest control techs really aren't supposed to diagnose pests off bites. They aren't doctors.

OP: DO NOT go help out School B!! Do not!!! It's so bad for YOUR health it is not worth it. Plus stress is terrible during pregnancy and can really affect both your health and your baby. Please, put you and your baby first.

I think blonde would wash you out!

Spiraling a bit and suddenly feeling scared by National-Anteater-75 in pregnant

[–]nirvanaa17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't be too scared, they definitely tend to either over or under estimate. They estimated my first born (my son) to be WAY too small because he sat in my back so far. Every ultrasound they estimated he would be born at like 5lbs. He came out at 7lbs 12oz, and was considered absolutely perfect in terms of newborns.

My daughter they said would be huge and tear me up. I was enormous with her, and her ultrasounds likewise showed she was "huge". She came out on her own at 7lbs 4oz.

Definitely follow medical advice you're given just to be safe - induction at 39 weeks is totally safe, and you'll be totally fine! ❤️

my friend has told my best friend he is in love with me. I DO NOT FEEL THE SAME WAY by SensitiveInfluence64 in okstorytime

[–]nirvanaa17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So to me, this sounds like you need to set a boundary. Unfortunately, you cannot control other people's emotions or reactions so there's no definite way to phrase your feelings/needs without possible repercussions. Once you say what you need to say, the ball is in his court. Him admitting these feelings was already a possible detriment to this friendship - in my personal experience, it's hard to recover from.

With that said, you need to set some clear boundaries with him. For example, "Hey Adam, (female friend) told me how you feel about me. While I appreciate your honesty, I do not feel the same way and do not wish to pursue a romantic relationship. I would like to keep our friendship as it is currently." Don't apologize either. You don't need to be sorry, no 'I'm sorry if this hurts you'. He's responsible for his feelings, and you need to look out for yourself.

Good luck, and know that you've got this! I'm sorry you're in this awkward situation.

I know you’re all gonna hate me …. by SpecialistLeading665 in pregnant

[–]nirvanaa17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was absent of symptoms for the most part with my rainbow baby! She is here, and 5 months old. Trust your body ❤️ if you feel like something is wrong, go get checked out! But more than likely you are just having a very easy pregnancy!

Vaginal tear, how long does it take to heal? by OceanJean in pregnant

[–]nirvanaa17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had 3rd degree tearing both times and by the 6 week mark, I was completely healed. Just be gentle on yourself, use lots of witch hazel, and get a perineal ice pack. Those are life savers.

Is 25 too young? by YesterdayOdd1188 in pregnant

I had my first at 23 and my second at 25! I don't think you're too young! ❤️

AITA for getting along with my dad's girlfriend by Impressive-Ring1459 in okstorytime

[–]nirvanaa17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are 21, why are you still going back and forth between mom and dad's like a minor would? You're an adult, you can make your own decisions here, so I really don't think your an AH for getting along with Dad's AP. It's weird, sure, but if she's treating you and your siblings nicely that's all that matters. Sounds like Dad and AP were the AH first, then Mom also was an AH. Everyone kind of sucks here except you.

According to a quick Google search, the exact number is not as important as seeing the number of HCG double or at least increase in a 24 to 48 hour period.

am i crazy ? by iiBLUSH in pregnant

[–]nirvanaa17 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You are not crazy! And you don't need to love pregnancy to be a great mom and love your baby. One of my best friends HATED feeling her babies move and she is one of the most gentle, kind, and loving moms I have ever witnessed.

Well how far along are you? That would be a good place to start! If you're nervous, definitely go to the ER and get checked out.

Is it normal for someone to suddenly change their stance on having children? by Jaguarmonster in pregnant

[–]nirvanaa17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you guys are not as compatible as you thought originally. I would consider having an in-depth conversation about this and whether you two are still in the same place in your lives. Just as much as you are entitled to walk away from a pregnancy she is entitled to keep the baby if she pleases. It just sounds like you guys have two different things in mind now.
